Device Overview

Summary

The eXtreme low power, PIC24F MCU includes up to 128KB of Flash memory with Error Correction Code (ECC) ,32 KB of RAM and USB connectivity. This device also features dual-partition Flash with Live Update capability, enabling them to hold two independent software applications, permitting simultaneous programming of one partition while executing application code from the other. With the ability to perform over-the-air firmware updates, designers can provide a cost-effective, reliable and secure method for updating their applications. These MCUs also feature eXtreme low power modes with current consumptions as low as 300nA in sleep modes.

This powerful combination of features makes the PIC24F “GA6” family ideal for industrial, computer, medical/fitness and portable applications that require a long battery life, and data transfer and storage without the need of external memory, such as electricity metering, HVAC control, fingerprint scanners and gaming.

The MPLAB® PM3 Universal Device Programmer is easy to use and operates with a PC or as a stand-alone unit, and programs Microchip's entire line of PIC® devices as well as the latest dsPIC® DSC devices. When used standalone, data can be loaded and saved with the SD/MMC card (not included).

The PIC24F Curiosity Development Board is a cost-effective, fully integrated 16-bit development platform targeted at first-time users, Makers, and those seeking a feature-rich rapid prototyping board. Designed from the ground-up to take full advantage of Microchip’s MPLAB® X IDE and MPLAB Xpress Cloud-based IDE, the board includes an integrated programmer/debugger and requires...

The PIC24FJ1024GB610 Plug-in Module is designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the PIC24FJ1024GB610 family using the Explorer 16 Demonstration Boards. Most of the pins from the device are mapped directly to the PIM connector (100-Pin ICE). The exceptions are those pins that are remapped to provide remappable functionality to the pins in the PICtail™ Plus socket.
